[Feature Request] Tool Selection via API

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It would be great if the API would allow access to the toolbelt to 
dynamically select & deselect the tools currently in use (overriding the 
start-up configuration).

I am wrapping FITS with a GUI that also does recursive directory processing 
for our technical services employees and I would like to give them a menu to 
optionally deselect installed tools. I could do this by writing configuration 
file editors although I don't want to re-instantiate FITS every time a change 
is made.

I didn't mean to mark this issue as a defect but I didn't see an option to 
indicate 
otherwise.

This will be in the next release. The Fits class will have a method to access 
toolbelt, 
from which you can get a list of all tools. Each tool will have an enabled flag 
and by 
default be set to true. Fits.examine(File input) will first check the flag 
before 
invoking the tool
